300 million people died from drugs last year according to Trump, so pretty much everybody in the U.S. I didn't even know I was sick.

Dear @waitrose

I want to know that the food I buy from you is slaughtered in accordance with humane and civilised practices, not under ISLAMIC law. The same would apply to Kosher.

Label the food we eat. We have a right to know. I’m not a Muslim. I don’t want to eat Halal meat.

“UK 5116 refers to the European Community (EC) approval number for the slaughterhouse operated by Dovecote Park (Skellingthorpe) Ltd, located in Skellingthorpe, Lincolnshire, UK. This facility is a dedicated cattle slaughterhouse. Beef processed there is halal-certified, meaning the animals undergo ritual slaughter compliant with Islamic law.
Slaughter Method
Cattle at this plant are slaughtered using the non-stun halal method (also known as dhabīḥah). This involves:
• Pre-slaughter handling: Animals are restrained in a way that minimizes distress, typically using a head holder or pen. They must be healthy and given water beforehand.
• Invocation: A Muslim slaughterman recites “Bismillah Allahu Akbar” (In the name of God, God is the Greatest) before the cut.
• The cut: A single, swift incision is made with a sharp knife across the throat, severing the jugular veins, carotid arteries, and windpipe (trachea) but sparing the spinal cord to allow reflexive blood loss. This causes rapid unconsciousness through blood loss (exsanguination).
• No prior stunning: Unlike standard UK regulations requiring pre-stunning (e.g., via captive bolt pistol or electric shock), halal certification here exempts stunning to meet religious requirements. The UK permits non-stun slaughter for halal and kosher meat under the Welfare of Animals (Slaughter or Killing) Regulations 1997, with ongoing debates about welfare.
This method ensures the meat is permissible for Muslim consumers, and the plant’s certification confirms compliance. Post-slaughter, carcasses are inspected for food safety by the Food Standards Agency (FSA) and processed further for beef production.
For general UK beef slaughter (non-halal), stunning is mandatory, but UK 5116 specifically uses the halal process. If this isn’t the intended reference, provide more details for clarification.”

Do not want to rain on your parade.
"live in a city, walk down the street, be confident no one will attack me, see no homeless ‘camps,’ I can shop at businesses" that sounds like where my wife and I live. Our American city has a population of 300+K residents.
It's not perfect, has its challenges, we are not looking for Utopia.

She lightly pushed her friend and tried to lift her, and then began to hug her! ❤️❤️

Please don't go to circuses! 🙏
Don't be cruel!

Everyday I ride with my son to school and on the way we pass a house with a little box of free apples out the front, and everyday I eat a couple, so I decided to paint a little picture of an apple to leave in their letterbox as a thank you.

I came across these books in a charity shop today.
Do I have them already?
Of course.
Should I have left them for someone else?
Probably.
Reader, I bought them.
